Happy Friday, friends, and cheers to the weekend! Three guesses where we’ll be spending our days, although you probably only need one… yep, the volleyball courts! I’m totally sucked into this book though, so you can find me hiding in the corner reading during her off-time!
Today I’ve got your favorite monthly series, my Amazon Fashion Finds! I had so much fun finding fresh, affordable styles for the season… in fact, I found so many I had to edit myself! I started these Fashion Finds over six years ago, and they quickly became reader faves. It takes some intense digging to find the good stuff, but I love the challenge of discovering such gems!
Sizing info: I’m 5’4″ 125-ish pounds, and usually wear an XS and 26 jeans. My fit tips and sizing recommendations are included with each description.
Dresses //
This little dress didn’t look like much when I pulled it out of the package, but the moment I slipped it on it became a favorite find of the month! The print is just so elevated, and the colors are universally flattering. Plus, it’s silky soft with a forgiving shape. Dress it up with wedges, or keep it casual with slides. You could even throw it on over your swimsuit for the chicest cover-up at the pool!
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.
Puff Sleeve Dress (Green-floral)
Left: Braided Slides in ‘Apricot’ (TTS) | Handled Straw Bag | Headband
Right: Straw Hat | Gold Hoop Earrings | Stretchy Bracelet
The cutest silhouette with a comfortable fit, I was instantly smitten with this dress! I love the range of colors, and the smocking at the waist makes it super comfortable! You could totally dress it up with a wedge, or add a belt and jacket or blazer for a more elevated look. The material lacks a bit, but not enough to turn me off from it.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.
Halter Mini Dress (Colors: Blue/White & X-khaki)
Braided Slides in ‘Apricot’ (TTS) | Gold Hoop Earrings | Stretchy Bracelet
Left: Headband // Right: Jean Jacket (Size: Small, Color: Jeanie) | Belt
This dress from Amazon’s The Drop brand (one of my faves) was a best-seller last year, and is back in all new colors… including this darling white eyelet! The material is on par with any department store or high-end brand, with an elastic band on the back and adjustable straps. It’s impossible not to feel good in this one!
Fit Tip: I own this dress in a black XS and it’s just a teeny-bit tight across the chest… so I sized up to a Small in these. They fit, but give it a flowier look overall.
Tiered Maxi Dress (Colors: White & Ultramarine Green)
Braided Slides in ‘Apricot’ (TTS) | Gold Hoop Earrings | Stretchy Bracelet
Left: Headband // Right: Jean Jacket (Size: Small, Color: Jeanie) | Headband
With Easter around the corner, I’ve been looking for dresses that fit the occasion. Of course I’m partial to this one, but this one is a close second! Made of a soft and lightweight woven material, it’s fully lined to the knee with an elastic waist and wrap front (there’s a snap to keep it closed!). I’ll swap the slides for a wedge or heeled sandal for church.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.
Tie Waist Midi Dress (Colors: Dark Blue & Green_01)
Braided Slides in ‘Apricot’ (TTS) | Gold Hoop Earrings
Left: Headband // Right: Straw Hat | Belt
Another great option, this dress had me at poppy and lilac… such a fun color combo, don’t you think?! It’s a soft and stretchy jersey knit, with faux-wrap front and flattering fit & flare shape.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.
Faux Wrap Dress (Red floral)
Strappy Heels (size up half) | Stretchy Bracelet
Take me back to the beach… this dress just screams dinner under the stars! I love the flowy shape and flattering one-shoulder style, with a comfy elastic waist. It comes in tons of colors and prints, so good luck choosing just one!
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.
One Shoulder Maxi Dress (Color: Yellow)
Strappy Sandals | Handled Straw Bag | Gold Hoop Earrings | Stretchy Bracelet | Headband | Belt
I’m currently crushing on lilac, so this dress instantly caught my eye! It has a comfortable smocked top and adjustable ties, with a full, silky-soft skirt. It’s full-length, too, which is great for the taller gals.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.
Smocked Tie-Shoulder Dress (Color: Lavender)
Braided Slides in ‘Apricot’ (TTS) | Woven Handled Bag | Gold Hoop Earrings | Stretchy Bracelet | Jean Jacket (Size: Small, Color: Jeanie) | Headband
You’ve seen this dress in black, it’s one of my go-tos for parties and fun nights out… I couldn’t resist grabbing it in this bold new pink! It’s a soft cotton poplin I love, with a crisp skirt and sturdy top. The wrap front and peek of cut-out on the back make it sassy, but not so much I feel exposed. It also has smocking on the back, with adjustable straps and an elastic waist, for a comfy fit.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size XS dress.
Cut-Out Midi Dress
Left: Strappy Heels (size up half) | Stretchy Bracelet
Right: Braided Slides in ‘Apricot’ (TTS) | Straw Hat | Straw Tote Bag | Removable Tassel
A top-seller around here for the last few months, you guys can’t get enough of this fun one-shoulder dress! It’s as comfy as it is chic, and perfect for so many occasions! I love the smocked top for a comfy fit, and it comes in tons of great colors! And bonus, it’s lightweight and soft, but not sheer at all (even the white!).
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.
One-Shoulder Tiered Dress (Dustyblue & White)
Gold Hoop Earrings | Stretchy Bracelet
Left: Miller Sandals | Headband // Right: Braided Slides in ‘Apricot’ (TTS) | Headband
I had visions of dinners on the beach in this maxi… just adore the flowy fit and sassy cut-out. The halter ties at the neck for a custom fit at the bust, and elastic along the back waist makes it super comfy.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.
Cut-Out Maxi Dress (Colors: Left – Black // Right – Viridis)
Miller Sandals | Straw Hat | Straw Tote Bag | Layered Initial Necklace | Gold Bead Bracelets
Pants & Shorts //
You guys saw these pants in blush pink last month (see them HERE), and I couldn’t resist trying them in a more neutral color. Something tells me I’ll be reaching for them all season long! Super soft and comfy with an elastic band in the back, I love the wide leg and flowy fit. Dress them up for work or date night, or throw on a t-shirt and sneakers for a stylish weekend look, they are super versatile!
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small pants, bodysuit, and button down.
Wide Leg Pants (Beige Short)
Left: Racerback Bodysuit (Coffee) | Strappy Heels (size up half) | Gold Hoop Earrings | Stretchy Bracelet
Right: Button Down Shirt | Braided Slides in ‘Apricot’ (TTS) | Headband
These shorts caught me off-guard at first… the material just wasn’t what I was expecting… but they instantly grew on me! Made of a thick poly-blend, they have a loose fit around the thigh I appreciate, with an elastic waist and cute ruffled hem. They’re stylish enough to dress up with a button-up, or keep them casual with tanks and tees.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small shorts, tee, button down, and jacket.
Tie-Waist Ruffle Shorts (C-whitegreen)
Left: Button Down Shirt | Braided Slides in ‘Apricot’ (TTS) | Gold Hoop Earrings | Stretchy Bracelet
Right: Puff Sleeve Tee | Jean Jacket (Color: Jeanie) | Headband
Another fun surprise… this gauzy style looks like a skirt, but is actually shorts! The wide leg and smocked waist is super comfy, and would be darling over a one-piece swimsuit, too! FYI… I also tried them in the lighter ‘beige’ color, and didn’t like the fit at all.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small shorts.
Pull-On Shorts
Puff Sleeve Tee (Small) | Braided Slides in ‘Apricot’ (TTS) | Leather Woven Tote Bag | Gold Hoop Earrings | Stretchy Bracelet
Right: Jean Jacket (Size: Small, Color: Jeanie) | Headband
You know I love my Agolde Parker shorts (currently on sale HERE!), but these Levi’s are a great more affordable option, as well! I love the lighter wash with no holes, and the loose hem doesn’t squeeze my thighs.
The other MVP of this combo is the bodysuit! I’ve truly never tried one so soft and high-quality! It’s double-lined for a smoothing fit, and a great longer length for no pulling through the stride!
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small bodysuit and size 27 shorts.
Racerback Bodysuit
Jean Shorts (Luxor Baked) | Leather Slide Sandals | Straw Hat | Gold Hoop Earrings | Stretchy Bracelet
Okay, I don’t love this color for me, but the set is so stinking cute!! Made of a linen-blend, it’s a great material for vacations and summer, with a comfy elastic waist and hem. The shorts are on the shorter side, so I’d either size up or reserve for beach days.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small set.
Cropped Shorts Set (Lightbrown)
Braided Slides in ‘Apricot’ (TTS) | Straw Hat | Gold Hoop Earrings | Stretchy Bracelet
Tops & Tees //
Another Sugarplum best-seller, this tee has been in the Top 5 for months! The softest v-neck tee, with a cute sleeve detail to give it extra feminine style. It comes in a slew of colors, and looks so cute with everything from denim to skirts.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size XS tee and size 25 jeans. Size down, trust me!

Did someone say date night or girls night out?! This top is perfect! It’s a drapey woven material, with silky adjustable shoulder ties and trim. I love the longer length and forgiving shape… perfect for straight or skinny jeans and wedges!
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small top.

Flare Cropped White Jeans (size up!) | Leather Slide Sandals | Leather Woven Tote Bag|
Spring Sweaters & Jackets //
I know most of us have moved on from buying sweaters, but this find is truly spring perfection!! Crazy soft and stretchy, it’s so good for this transitional weather. I’ll even wear it with jean shorts until summer!
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small pullover.
Ribbed Collar Pullover (Solid Pink)
Flare Cropped White Jeans (size up!) | Braided Slides in ‘Apricot’ (TTS) | Gold Hoop Earrings | Stretchy Bracelet | Headband

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small sweater.

Left: Light Wash Raw Hem Jeans (code CASSIE15) | Chain Mules | Earrings & Bracelet | Headband

If you’re still months away from warmer weather, you’ll love this spring jacket! The olive color is perfect for pairing with all shades of denim, and the lightweight nylon material gives just enough warmth without adding bulk.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small jacket (but would prefer a size down) and size XS tank.

Special Occasion //
Y’all must have a lot of fun invitations on the calendar, because the requests for special occasion dresses are coming in hot! This halter style has been my go-to for the last black-tie events, and I’m crazy for the new pink color! It’s made of a stretchy crepe material that hugs in the right spots, with a fun ruffled hemline.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.
Halter Ruffle Evening Gown (Black & Magenta)
Ankle Strap Heels (size up half) | Gold Hoop Earrings | Stretchy Bracelet
Another gorgeous option, this one shoulder has a fun oversized bow detail, and flattering ruching along the waistline. It’s just so chic and high-end looking!
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.
One-Shoulder Evening Gown (Black & Rose Red)
Ankle Strap Heels (size up half) | Gold Hoop Earrings | Stretchy Bracelet
The quality of this one is as good as it is flattering! The top has a faux wrap style with tummy-concealing ruching, with a fitted, yet stretchy skirt. It’s a double-lined crepe material with a sassy leg slit. It’s also bra-friendly, which is a big plus!
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.
Faux Wrap Dress with Slit
Strappy Heels (size up half) | Initial Necklace
This dress stopped me in my tracks… the style and quality is straight out of a department store! The swing style with halter neckline is universally flattering, and the pleats give it great movement. The color is stunning, and it’s perfect for cocktail parties and weddings.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress, but no need to size up.
Pleated Halter Dress (Blue Green)
Strappy Heels (size up half) | NuBra
This one is gorgeous as well, but would require some alterations for the petite crowd as the torso and length are longer (great for the tall gals!). I love the deep plunging neckline and mermaid hem. It is a solid material with good stretch, as well.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small dress.
Fitted Plunging Neckline Dress
Strappy Heels (size up half) | Initial Necklace
Perfect for weddings and cocktail parties, this pleated satin halter dress is as flattering as it is fun! The elastic waist and neck make it comfy, and the asymmetrical hem will have you twirling all night!

Pleated Halter Midi Dress

Athleisure & Workout Wear //
You guys…I can’t stop with this pullover and these leggings! They have quickly overtaken every other style in my closet!! The leggings are thick with just enough compression to keep me locked in, but not so much I’m sweating to put them on. They also have a high waist that stays put no matter the exercise.
And the pullover, yep… I have three now. It’s actually better than the lulu option, and I wear it several times a week!
Fit Tip: The leggings are TTS, I’m a size XS… I love the pullover in an oversized fit… this is a size Medium (I also have it in size Small, and like that, too).
Pullover (Khaki) | Mid-Weight Leggings (Cassis) | NB Sneakers (TTS)
You know I’m a die-hard fan of the Vuori Performance Joggers (there’s a reason they’ve made the Sugarplum Favorite Things list two years in a row!), but I’m always on the lookout for a more affordable option. These are the closest I’ve found… they aren’t as crazy soft as my beloved Vuori, but they are soft with an elevated style perfect for streetwear.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small joggers with 24″ inseam, but would consider sizing up if in-between.

Swim Coverups //
I’ve seen this cover-up floating around the web for ages, and finally decided to try it for myself (I usually steer clear of over-done trends)… but friends, the hype is real on this one! It has a super-stretchy smocked waist, loose cap sleeves, and just long enough to keep it all covered up!
Fit Tip: It’s one size fits all.

Too many too cute short dress/shorts looks!

All pretty looks-also, love your hair straight and smooth!
Oh thank you, Kathy! Sometimes I do love to change it up! xo, C
Amazing Amazon finds as always, Cassie! My cart is overflowing.
It can get dangerous, ha! xo, C
I have the tie waist midi dress and actually had the ruffled sleeve removed and love it even more. It fits/lays more nicely under jackets and cardigans for sure.
Well what a smart idea!! So savvy of you! xo, C
